	<h2>Project Description</h2>
	<p>The <strong>Web Markup Minifier</strong> (abbreviated WebMarkupMin) - a .NET library that contains a set of markup minifiers.
	The objective of this project is to improve the performance of web applications by reducing the size of <abbr title="HyperText Markup Language">HTML</abbr>, <abbr title="Extensible HyperText Markup Language">XHTML</abbr> and <abbr title="Extensible Markup Language">XML</abbr> code.
	<p>WebMarkupMin absorbed the best of existing solutions from non-microsoft platforms: Juriy Zaytsev's <a href="http://kangax.github.com/html-minifier/" target="_blank">Experimental HTML Minifier</a>  (written in JavaScript) and Sergiy Kovalchuk's <a href="http://code.google.com/p/htmlcompressor/" target="_blank">HtmlCompressor</a> (written in Java).</p>
	<p>Minification of markup produces by removing extra whitespace, comments and redundant code (only for HTML and XHTML).
	In addition, HTML and XHTML minifiers supports the minification of CSS code from <code>style</code> tags and attributes, and minification of JavaScript code from <code>script</code> tags, event attributes and hyperlinks with <code>javascript:</code> protocol.
	WebMarkupMin.Core contains built-in JavaScript minifier based on the Douglas Crockford's <a href="http://github.com/douglascrockford/JSMin" target="_blank">JSMin</a> and built-in CSS minifier based on the Mads Kristensen's <a href="http://madskristensen.net/post/efficient-stylesheet-minification-in-c" target="_blank">Efficient stylesheet minifier</a>.
	The above mentioned minifiers produce only the most simple minifications of CSS and JavaScript code, but you can always install additional modules that support the more powerful algorithms of minification: WebMarkupMin.MsAjax (contains minifier-adapters for the <a href="http://ajaxmin.codeplex.com" target="_blank">Microsoft Ajax Minifier</a>) and WebMarkupMin.Yui (contains minifier-adapters for <a href="http://github.com/PureKrome/YUICompressor.NET" target="_blank">YUI Compressor for .Net</a>).</p>
	<p>Also supports minification of views of popular JavaScript template engines: <a href="http://knockoutjs.com/" target="_blank">KnockoutJS</a>, <a href="http://www.telerik.com/kendo-ui" target="_blank">Kendo UI MVVM</a> and <a href="http://angularjs.org/" target="_blank">AngularJS</a> 1.X.</p>
	<p>In addition, there are several modules that integrate this library into ASP.NET: WebMarkupMin.Web (for ASP.NET 4.X), WebMarkupMin.Mvc (for ASP.NET MVC 3, 4 or 5) and WebMarkupMin.WebForms (for ASP.NET Web Forms 4.X).</p>
	<p>You can try WebMarkupMin in action and experiment with different minification settings live on the <a href="http://webmarkupmin.apphb.com/" target="_blank">WebMarkupMin Online</a> site.</p>
	<p>WebMarkupMin was created and is maintained by Andrey Taritsyn.</p>
